Well said, OP.
A new low indeed.
Personally, I couldn't give a rat's what a person whose opinion doesn't matter sh*t to me makes of my contribution in 2007, but any claims that Sonja didn't play an important role is utterly farcical. Reluctant as I am to give this revisionist crap any oxygen, it's worth pointing out a rather significant factoid that seems to have been missed in the retelling.
Sonja worked side-by-side with Ron during the whole relocation saga, planning and strategising closely with him every single step of the way. They were as the saying goes, 'in league together'. The influence Sonja had on RJ’s actions in 2007 cannot, and should not, be underestimated. If Ron was pivotal to the eventual success of the anti-relocation push (which he was), then it's both ludicrous and wildly uninformed to downplay Sonja's contribution in the same breath.
Truth is it's laughable for anyone outside of the Roosistence inner scrote to be speaking with authority on matters they simply weren't privy to, but that important detail seems to be lost on some, so here we are. Be that as it may, assuming one ascribes the requisite level of veracity to my words (given that I was a part of the aforementioned inner scrote and therefore can actually speak with authority on these matters), then there’s a fairly basic logic at play here – if a person isn’t aware of the close association between RJ and Sonja in 2007, any claims that person makes wrt the inner workings of Roosistence fall completely flat.
Regardless of anyone’s opinion of Sonja circa now, the above remains an unassailable fact. Lidge was indeed epic. Pharro, Northbhoy, Tim likewise. As were others. However, it was Sonja that was working side-by-side with Ron. To that end, she couldn't have been much closer to the coalface of the anti-relocation fight if she tried. Attempting to downplay her significance denotes a clear ignorance of the facts.
I was particularly referring to you, Mr scarves & water, and you know it, but nice deflection anyway.
I'm sure the resident gullible will lap it up. I see through you.

What a load of horseshit. You carry on as if the ciub would not have survived without her. How can you lie like that to people?
The word "Scanlon" doesn't appear anywhere in your propaganda piece.
